ANOTHER SUDDEN DEATH.

Hardly a week passes without the men,
ton by the newspapers of sudden deaths,
and OF late the alarming frequency of the
statement that death was caused bv rheu-
matism or neuralgia Of the heart cannot
fail to have been noticed. In all proha-

ease are caused by these terrible diseases.
which are far more dangerous than is gen
orally considered. Is there any positive
cure? TIE best answer To such Il question
is given bv those who hare been cured by
the use of Athlophoros.
+. \. Curry, son Of Mrs. J. III. Curry, of
New Paris, Ohio, says: My mother, previ-
ous to her use of Athlophoros had been al
most a constant sufferer from Inhammatory
rheumatism OF the most acute form. At the
time she commenced with this medicine she
was in a most helpless condition; her suffer
ing could well be termed torture; she was
confined to her bed for MANY weeks, no;hiny
We had done gave her any relief. Ny father
was almost discouraged and disheartened
fearing there never would he any relief for
her Not knowing what TO dc next he came
to town, going TO Mr. Richer's drug store,
he said he must have something that would
al least give her rellet. Mr. httieF spoke ol
Athlophoros and told my father to 20 and
see Josiah White about his use of it. Mr..
White spoke highly of the medicine and
advised my father to get bottle and try it,
which he did. After taking few doses
mother began to get relief, after she had
used two bottles she was up and around and
in weeks time she came down town. How
long had she been afflicted with this rheu-
matism? For sixteen wears, Of course it

Charles Summers study. in the second story
of his residence at the corner of ii and FIT
teenth streets, was a paradise in the cstima-
ton of bibliophIleS or persons of n fine art
education. To one fortunate enough to gain
an entree 1t appeared almost impossible to
bring order out of the great chaos of books,
pamphlets, manuscripts, newspapers and
waste baskets prevailing in the room. The
walls were hung with very choice engravings
and photographs. of which Mr. Sumner was
ardent admirer, having in his possession
one of the most extensive and valuable col
lections in the country. The situation OF the
study was very cheerful, and the furniture
was rich without being gaudy. Here and
there portions of lounges could be detected
amidst the mass of books and papers, while

official letters he would have to plunge in
order to reach the inkstand or paper cutter.

NOvtlists have gotten up corner on
weird and startling subjects and thrilling,
CHASTITY tales now haze the call. Novels
have their fashion and the novelist must
cater To the current desire. The Howells-
James novels are losing their popularity,
and those of the class 10 which Steven
sons belong are gaining the public's ear.
This change in the taste of novel readers
occurs every few years, and if the libra
rieS had kept record of the character of
tales called for most frequently during
certain periods they could tell just how
long fashion lasted and when its turn
came again. At all events, it looks rs if

A handsome brick house near Murfreesboro,
Tenn, standing on an emlnence that over
looks the Stone River battlefield, is pointed
ont as the birthplace of Miss Mary N. MUIR
free, who, as Charles Egbert Craddock, has
been SO phenomenally successful in literature.
The house was built by the young lady's
grandfather, one among the first men of his
day, and was for years his home. And it is
probable that there, as well as in the noun
tains, she observed the fine, faint marvels Of
light and shade that enter so largely into her
word painting. For the camp of two great
armies, Rutherford county is pretty well
denudei of its timber, and from the Murfree
house the eye sweeps over miles and miles,
and at last rests on a ruin Of serrated bills
that mark the county line.-New York
